BTL #191 - The Euphamism - 3/7/16
This week on a special bi-coastal BTL, all hell breaks loose in the GOP primary in an ever-mounting flurry of desperate party maneuvers and bizarre Donald Trump quotes. Christ Christie has been kidnapped and cannot be saved so let's not worry about him anymore, but is anybody going to tell Rubio that his time might be up? Also, a rowdy Democratic Debate in Flint, MI, election results from all the "super" election days a person could ask for, CPAC, Ted Cruz's booger-eating, and so much more! How is it possible that every week tops the last? We're exhausted, you guys, but we do it all for you!
BTL #186 - How To Caucus Wisely - 2/1/16
IOWA, IT'S TIME TO CAUCUS!! We have everything here need to know going into today's official start of the primary season, plus all the dirt on the Hillary and Bernie's newly agreed upon Democratic Debate schedule, last week's Trump-less but not very reassuring GOP Debate (were they all always so boring?), and Hillary's never-ending email dramas. All that plus we've reached maximum rage in the Flint water scandal/atrocity/fucking terribleness, and we have some important lessons for the GOP about when a group of liars should try to fool the judicial system and when they should just...stay home. Follow along all week as we report and dissect the Iowa results!
BTL #175 - Marauding Danger Blimp - 11/2/15
This week on BTL...Paul Ryan is adorably optimistic for a guy who just became House Speaker. And maybe the GOP’s distaste for facts and math explains why their supposed party “frontrunner” (today it's Rubio!) is perpetually in 4th place. Also, DON'T PANIC about the Sherrod Brown Hillary endorsement thing, guys. Everything is going predictably and that's okay. And yet another Clinton v. Fax Machine war in the week's email release. Plus, finally, an adorable military blimp on an adorable mission captures the imaginations of Americans far and wide. At least we can all agree we're pro-blimp!
